Drees Homes Reviews in Washington, VA

The home buying experience was overshadowed by the lack of adherence and unprofessionalism related to agreed upon purchase items to the house. Additionally, minor design flaws are not easily corrected through Drees (fixing myself). Ultimately, Drees came through in fulfilling their agreement for purchased items and corrected most but not all issues.

We still have blue tape all around our house on things that aren’t fixed. We are missing a cabinet in our basement bar because the cabinet installers left a broken cabinet, like we wouldn’t notice. When we opened the cabinet door, it just fell off. Also, our flooring was put in so terrible that we have lumps and bumps all over the place. I have zero trust with the team of people that were supposed to “help” us; they basically took our money and have left us. As much as we paid for the house (and our first water bill was over $600; there’s only 3 people in our house) our lawn should look better. Actually, we don’t really have much of a lawn.

Also, we were supposed to have a cutout for an electrical outlet for our basement for our business purposes and that still hasn’t been done, hindering our business growth. The workmanship was so sloppy that on the side of our home, they didn’t finish a row of stone; just put the mortar there and didn’t finish.

The timeline Drees Homes provided was not properly followed. The materials used all over the house is below standard. The Drees financing is another dilemma and headache to deal with. Overall, personally I would not buy again from Drees Homes.

Buyer be ware. If you build with this company, you may need to hire an attorney.
